wiring

Looking for help, I bought a 2018 T6 and have had the barn doors replaced with a tailgate. However..... the autoelectrician is struggling to get the correct feed for the tailgate handle. He tells me that a specific feed is required to be powered for just 10s or so and no matter how much he...

Evening all - Any tips/advice on routing cables from under the seat to the back of the van? I have a twin slider, looked at going up through the seat belt pillar, how do you come back down to the control panel which will be situated in the back? Looks like I may have to drill a hole?? Also I'm...

I’ve installed 6 touch down lights into my camper conversion and they all work absolutely fine when they’re dangling from their wires and not pushed in. But when I push them into the cut out, they don’t respond to touch/ don’t work as intended, they either stay on or stay off. Has anyone else...

Has anyone managed to relocate these buttons back to their original spaces on an ex rac van? I’ve had most of the dash apart and still couldn’t find whatever is securing the metal box in place

Just seen this video by Gadget John on YouTube where he found a very dangerously jointed cable on an Ecoflow supply lead. Could have caused a fire if he hadn't found it, and judging by the fact that the cables are covered in sheathing from the factory, no-one would have had the chance to spot it.

I'm feeling quite lucky and don't want anyone else to make the same mistake.... On the I’m just back from a trip to the Alps and on the way home was having an early morning brew (1kW Kettle) at the same time as having a 12V fan heater on (only 150W) I suddenly had a rather unpleasant smell...

Hi All, Looking for some advice on routing the positive cable from the main battery to the DC-DC charger and leisure batteries I am fitting in the rear of my T6.1. The easiest option is that I already have a second battery under the passenger seat, which is factory fitted to power the...

Hi All, Do you know of anyone else with this fridge having low voltage issues? It has worked fine for last two trips and was okay for the first two days of this one then stopped cooling and showing 1 & 2 flashes on the error code light inside the fridge. I’ve had it on hook up feed and leisure...

Hi everyone, does anybody recognise this loom? I moved my T6 2016 Caravelle and this was underneath it! Can't help thinking it's not a good thing. Drove fine last time I used it.

I have a surplus of solar cable left over from when I fitted my panel a while back. I’m now in the process of installing a separate solar charge controller and making the ctek solar charger redundant (due to solar panel being too big VoC). Is there any issue using solar cable to link the solar...

Hi all, I've had my 2017 T6 panel Van for four years now and had more than my fair share of problems ! The latest was that the NS DRL light stopped working and flagged up a "lighting failure" This was diagnosed as corroded wiring and after arguing was fixed at VW UK's cost. A month on and I now...

I've made a blind surround for an ikea blind. Aiming to do the whole van eventually. I plan to fix the surround straight through the front by cutting and lifting small sections of carpet and fixing self tappers into the van body (well that is what I'm hoping to do!). I'm a bit worried about...
